Bye-Bye Butterflies!

We are wrapping up our study of the Painted Lady Butterfly life cycle.  We were lucky enough to see all parts of the life cycle.  Our butterflies laid eggs on the mallow plants I put in the enclosure and this week the eggs hatched brand new caterpillars!  Now it is time to say goodbye to the butterflies….
Isn't that sweet how he congratulated them for going through their life cycle?

I wasn't sure the kiddos would get into writing letters to say goodbye to the butterflies... they sure did!
Bye-bye butterflies!
